North Frontenac has the darkest skies in southern Ontario and it is the perfect place for star gazing. Many of us have taken for granted that the dark sky is a natural beauty and forgot, or never realized, that many people have no idea what can be seen in the heavens above at night. In 2013, the Township of North Frontenac became the first municipality in Canada to receive Dark Sky Preserve status from the Royal Astronomical Society of Canada.
